Le Choix de l'École triggers and accompanies a commitment to teaching, in order to collectively build the school of tomorrow.

76
%of teachers feel they perform tasks for which they need more training (Cour des Comptes, 2021)
2x
less chance for a pupil from a disadvantaged background to enter general secondary school with the same grades (CNESCO, 2016)
Solution
Le Choix de l'école has demonstrated that it is possible to attract committed people to priority education thanks to an innovative program that supports young graduates and working people in their transition to teaching.
To ensure the success of these teachers and that of their pupils, the association trains and supports them during their first two years in elementary school, middle schools or vocational high schools in priority neighborhoods. This support, comprising almost 300 hours of training, includes:
To ensure the success of these teachers and that of their pupils, the association trains and supports them during their first two years in elementary school, middle schools or vocational high schools in priority neighborhoods. This support, comprising almost 300 hours of training, includes:
- a month-long Summer Campus in July to prepare for the start of the new school year;
- subject-specific support provided by tenured teachers from the French Ministry of Education;
- cross-disciplinary training on specific topics such as school dropout, guidance and classroom management;
- tailored support to address all concerns related to the profession.
At the end of the program, each teacher receives support to help them refine and realize their post-program career plans, whether they wish to continue in teaching or join another sector.

9.5/10 is the average score for our program ✨
Dear difters,
At School Choice, we don't waver from the tradition of end-of-year reviews. Thus, we have just published our impact report 2024, which enables us to identify and quantify the social consequences of our actions in order to demonstrate their usefulness.
We won't spoil it all for you, but here are a few figures that get us excited:
🤝 95% of the teachers we support feel part of a collective.
🧑🏫62% of teachers project themselves in the profession following the program compared with 38% before the program.
🙌 8.25/10 is the average satisfaction score from school heads regarding Le Choix de l'école.
If the association achieves such results today, it's thanks to the work of all those who have worked on it and who believe every day in the academic success of all students.
Thank you to all the team, teachers, alumni, financial and academic partners, and to you, dear difteurs 💙

World Teachers' Day
October 5 was World Teachers' Day. Let's celebrate those who, every day, shape the future through education! 🙌
To be a teacher is not just to transmit and inculcate knowledge such as the Pythagorean theorem, 1515 Marignan or relative subordinate clauses...
➡️ It's to rub shoulders with dozens of students every day and build a unique bond of trust with each of them.
➡️ It's to listen to them, support them, and motivate them.
➡️ It's about helping them understand the world and construct their own opinions.
➡️ It's about giving them confidence in themselves and their abilities.
➡️ It's about guiding them by helping them think and build the future they want.
➡️ It's about confronting social determinisms and overcoming them.
It's a demanding profession that rightly deserves to be valued. This is what we at School Choice are doing on this day, but also every day of the year, by valuing the work of teachers, particularly those who teach in priority education networks.
Their impact is immense, and extends far beyond the classroom.

- Organize the training program and support teachers
- Mobilize teams and experienced teachers in each partner academy to provide support pairs and class visits
